hi
17 days ago you commited a change with:
"Universal backend: split _t-univ.scm into 4 files to improve build time
"

I try to understand how the backend works, especially how all the host
interop/ffi is implented across the different targets. Together these 4
files make almost 16'000 lines of code, which are splitted with
quantitative criteria in mind. That makes the process of understanding
and the possible task of adding a new backend hard. Is there a semantic
structure behind the splits? That would help.
